Summary

It's not you, it's the heat. In this episode celebrating Canada Day, Gina Livy explains why hot weather and air conditioning can spike your scale even when your weight is actually trending down, and what to do about it (hint: it involves salt and fruit, not less water). From there she goes deep on set point, the real reason "goal weight" isn't a fixed number, why your body fights to keep you in a range, and how releasing fat is a different process than burning it. She also answers questions on true hunger versus habit hunger and how to navigate a summer full of celebrations without losing your footing. This episode aligns with Day 73 of our Spring 2026 weight loss program.
